In the words of Madeleine Alblight: “What’s the point of having a great army if you aren’t going to use it.”
Also if one traces the money that built the Reich, it leads to the usual suspects. There are, or at least were, good youtubes that lay it out. (in book form Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler by Anthony Sutton). It has been many years, but I seem to remember a passage in Paul Johnson’s Modern Times that stated that the organization of Russian commerce under the Czars and continuing through communism, was seen by the West (really certain parties) as a threat.

Kim Jong Un, and other villians are like Adolph Hitler, only not in the way most people think.

I have downloaded Paul Johnson’s Modern Times …http://cnqzu.com/library/Philosophy/neoreaction/_extra%20authors/Johnson,%20Paul/Modern%20times%20(Ingles).pdf
Reading “Waiting for Hitler”, page 122 states Lenin’s real name to be Issachar Zederblum.
If this is true, why was Lenin’s real name not offered in my university Russian Revolution studies and why this has not been revealed in the late Soviet times, and especially now, in Russian Federation times.
Furthermore, should not Lenin’s real name be on his mausoleum in Red Square?
(again … answers please)

Hi, Paul. Hitler feared Soviet Russia because of several factors : When he came to power in 1933, the world was still in the great economic crisis. Soviet Union under Stalin, at that time hasn’t felt this recession, even contrary, has begun to emerge as a viable economy based on a centralized system under the Communist Party. The velocity of the Soviet economic growth was indeed amazing at that point, in such a short time.Hotler, after coming to power, has chosen his way of doing things better in the German economy and he did that sucessfully, but the German industry under Hitler, never achived that potential of Russia.This also due to the political differencies and due to the lack of natural resources which Germany lacked and was constrained to import them, one of the was the oil.A modern industrial nation cannot have substantial growth without energy resources.After England (and France) have declared war on Germany in 1939, the Brits have instated an economical blockade on Germany. Hitler new, that the history shal repeat itself and made a pact with Stalin in order to get more time to prepare his military machine. He was totally aware of the risc of having to fight a two-fronts war. making a pact with stalin, made his hands free to act against the western enemies (France and GBR) but he did have in mind as priority, to attack Soviet Russia, before that country could achieve such a powerful military potential, he could not resist. In his mind, this was matter of life or death for Germany. The initial plan ( there are many such interpretations throughout the net) was an attack could be possible only after 1944-45, when the German Army would be strong enough to take such a move (taking in consideration a large variety of issues – including weather and roads conditions). Hitler had always the fear that he may lose the timing – which he did by the way – and, taking in consideartion his personal character, he had very little patience, he lacked the strategic long term view. His main argument towards attacking Russia was the Bolchevik ideology but in the mean time, he feared Russia because of her achievements under Stalin, thus the political and militry influence Russia would have in mid or longer term on Europe. That was a warning for Hitler, who sought a stronger role for Germany to play on the continent, mainly now, after the defeat of France and GBR on the European battlefields. He was also fully aware that there is not much time to contemplate till the US will come again to help the old Brits again, he had that experience in the first world war. He also new, that the Brits and US will not rush to help Russia because of the same political and economic reasons. So, he decided to play the most dangerous play, putting everything on one card : Soviet Russia with Barbarossa, with the hope of a quick win. “I kicked the door, but behind, was more…I kicked the door, not nice, and got a bad surprise”

The most plausible is neuro-imaging, which would have to be done using satellites for ‘remote viewing’.

And which is far from capable of divining intent, even if it had the reach. .

One wonders why the media and’ seventeen intelligence agencies ‘ have to put so much time and effort into’ divining ‘ Russian (and other’ threats ‘) with such a super – duper starship trooper tool at their disposal..

He also seems a tad modest on the subject of its successes. Not a notable USian trait..

A few of the founders/pioneers of remote viewing were involved in Scientology. One of the lesser known aspects of Scientology is that at their self-described higher levels of progress (there is a path they follow, called the Bridge), they have communication with entities – beings without bodies. This is in effect a kind of telepathy or psychic communication with the spirit world.

Perhaps what they do in remote viewing is mostly a kind of telepathy and I imagine, like many things of the non-material world, it is not well understood.

I have read of some occult / esoteric types who advise extreme caution when dealing with the spirit world as apparently one cannot really “trust” these beings. So maybe these remote viewers “tune in” to a conversation with these beings (a sort of extra-sensory intel source as it were), and these entities being somewhat flighty or with their own agenda may or may not share good information about what is going on.

For some strange reason this week, I was researching Cephalopods –squid, octopi and such. Though invertebrates, they have complex nervous systems and exhibit learning. What caught my attention was that due to ethics experimentation on them is said to be (by wikipedia) prohibited (the same ethics that condones third trimester abortion– but I digress). Obviously this prohibition, if real, does not apply to those above the law. I mention this only to hint that there are intelligences all around if we are willing to look.

It may indeed be nothing special, however it is interesting to look into Hal Puthoff and Ingo Swann (two who were there at the start) and what else they have been involved in.

There is a “consulting” group called the Farsight Institute which is a modern day, civilian incarnation of this remote viewing team. Every now and then they do a media campaign around some far in time or place thing they are remote viewing. It always seems to me a lot of noise and not much in results but judge for yourself here:http://farsight.org/

This is a really interesting subject. I have had many psychic experiences over my life. Sometimes you can just tune in to a place, person, or thing with your mind. Minds are not limited by the laws of matter. They operate by different laws. Some of those laws were articulated by Spiritual teachers. The more you follow them, the more `in tune´ you become. Ask and you shall receive becomes a literal reality. I grew up in special educational programs, psychologists from Stanford used to play games and experiment with us.
These systems operate really well for those who have clear intentions of love, and not harming. All of this military suspicion and ill will creates barriers and cross currents. They will get so far, but no further, as clear contact with mystery will elude them. Intentions are important. And yes, sometimes you will attract powerful, seductive beings. A clear command of `Begone, if you are not of the Light´ will banish them.

Robin, it sounds like you’ve had some special experiences. Thank you for sharing the Begone command, I have in the past used pyramids of white light but it becomes exhausting to maintain them all the time.

Trump tweeted 2 hours ago: ‘Subject to the receipt of further information, I will be allowing, as President, the long blocked and classified JFK FILES to be opened.’
He doesn’t say when though, and whether parts will be redacted.

There was tardation, delay in my own family. This accounts for my patience with it in others. Dennis feels neglected. He gets 10 times (easily!!) more attention than anyone else, but it’s never actually enough. And…… he’s quite up front about it: “Well, enough about me! What do YOU think of ME????”

He laughed, but recognized himself and his never ending angst in that story of mine…..and demands more attention here….OR he’ll have to seek it elsewhere. I have new story for him. Sorry, not daily. There is such a thing as WORK….for some of us…..

I wasn’t worried about my oldest son’s 1- 3+ years old “delays”, but my wife was. She wanted to take him to therapists, psychologists, speech experts. He wouldn’t talk.

But there are other ways to manage besides yakking. I knew he was smart, because he connected very well, within hours of his birth to mother and dad and others holding him, his eyes moving, his mouth smiling, social as all get out.

A few weeks later, set in the middle of the living room rug, not even crawling yet, I played a game. I peeked around the corner at him, and pulled behind the corner when his eyes connected with mine. He laughed at my pantomine of being fearful of him. All 6ft 5 in of me.

Irish Communist Anonymous Lepretard says I come from “the dark side”. Well, IMHO, that’s projection. There is frequent cloud cover in Ireland. And its dark under Irish bridges, particularly as the Winter Solstice approaches, So yeah, I “get” the perception of darkness.

But perception is rarely reality.

And, even when I can’t be here, I am thinking about bringing more light to myself and others. This answer to Far Away Analyst might shed some light. I was thinking also about Anonymous and DL as I wrote it:

But back to my delayed son. He finally broke through. It turns out he wasn’t retarded, after all. And I seek a similar break through with the stubborn matter of Lepretardation.

Here’s what happened: His mother had fretted again, convinced that it was necessary to spend thousands of dollars on specialists to help the little retard finally talk, at 3…or was it 4?? Can’t remember!

He was playing with something, so I played along as well, relaxed, both of us sitting on the rug interacting with various pieces of a little train set, blocks or something else. I spoke about this or that observance of what we were doing or could do next, in simple tones, with my reassuring baritone.

Casually, from time to time I would make eye contact with him and there was pretty good social engagement that way.

Finally, I simply paused and asked, “Son, can you talk?”

He looked at me somewhat surprised, and then said, “No.”

That was the first word he ever spoke.

I think something similar is possible, in Wisconsin…..or Ojai……or even Ireland!

Or, if not with them two, perhaps among some keen observers in between. Connecting the short way (toward the rising sun) or across the Pacific and the World Island. North and South as well. The whole Compass Rose! It is in our common interest, after all.

I knew a professor from Alberta that got a job at the University in Honolulu. He had an adopted son that looked seemingly Asian. The elementary school asked the boy what language he first spoke. He said Cree, but they heard Korean. So they put him in The ESL class for Korean kids. He didn’t learn anything for most of the first year he was there, even though he spoke fluent English.

I was called to assist a newly arrived Chinese primary school student speak English as he was not speaking any English and everybody was concerned.
One day, after four weeks of nothing, we were passing the bike racks and I spotted a bicycle that was extra special and stopped to admire it for some thirty seconds, when I heard in perfect English, “That’s my bike.”

If your son is experiencing delays, the sooner the intervention, the better, in general. I would recommend the GAPS diet, developed by Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride. She has lectures on you tube which explain the importance of the gut biome, and how to heal it.

My youngest son, who was born with Down´s Syndrome, has taught me to communicate with him by thinking in pictures. He is verbal, but prefers non verbal communications. Thinking in pictures also enables me to communicate with animals and other creatures quite well. One has to develop a meditative receptivity to `hear´ or receive communications non verbally. Its been a wonderful educational journey so far. Max Dorje uses what I call `direct heart speech´.

Enjoy your little ones, they all come to us for a reason. Great that you are so perceptive and open.

@93 and his son’s unwillingness to talk: the same thing happened with my very alert, actively social in all ways but verbal, nephew at 3years of age. Again, the therapists, counselors, school meetings etc. etc.. Turns out that he speaks ( bilingually) only when he wants to which is rarely. Turns out he is super smart. The expensive therapist thinks so and thinks he is sorting out not only the two languages but two cultures.

some children remain quiet until they feel that they have mastered the language well enough to speak in complete sentences. when they speak it’s nearly the quality of an adult. I have read of this, but not seen it.

Often times, it is said, the very creative minds seem to learn slowly. Perhaps due to a deeper and more thorough attention to detail and thought.

@LZ99, this is exactly what the Chinese language department professors told me when I phoned and asked for information regarding the Chinese primary school student’s non speaking of English.
This was a case which upset me somewhat because I was asking myself frequently, am I teaching or tormenting. The lad was often aggressive toward me and did not want to be taken out of his normal routine for just one hour per day. In hindsight my efforts were more a hindrance than a help. The young lad was like ‘a fish out of water’ (as was spoken of) in a new environment, experiencing homesickness and loss of former friends and extended family, he needed time to adjust to a new language and a new culture. Most people will pick language up, especially when young because they want to participate. When he said, “That’s my bike”, he was smiling like a Cheshire cat … very proud.

In old age I read German every day, and French, and Spanish..etc. I cannot speak these languages…as there’s no one with whom I might, though now and then I get a chance – perhaps a Russian girl at the dentist of some such encounter.

I have little trouble reading them. Chinese kid…just as I am. It would take me some time to gather what’s necessary to speak properly in these languages..I am still discovering the terms and expressions and customs and especially the sounds.

Fella wants to speak properly, eh? Particularly in a group of strangers…

“This will end very badly — Chaly on Ukrainian attack plans on the black sea fleet. The Deputy of legislative Assembly of Sevastopol Alexey Chaly considers impossible the implementation of the plans of the Ukrainian Navy to apply the tactics of “wolf pack” against the black sea fleet of the Russian Federation due to the absence of the Ukrainian Navy submarines.

As previously reported, “Russian Spring”, the naval forces of Ukraine plan to apply the tactics of “wolf pack”, developed by the submarine of nazi Germany during WW2.

Its essence in Ukrainian is the simultaneous attack of several light armored vehicles, which do not have time to accompany the group the target and cause fire damage to all units “mosquito fleet”.
The soldiers of the Navy of the APU in the television program openly declared that they were ready to attack the warships of the black sea fleet (BSF) of the Russian Navy, but also to seize the Russian oil rigs “Chernomorneftegaz”.

“This tactic was used the Kriegsmarine during the battle of the Atlantic during the Second world war. Was this tactic that the group of submarines attacked the supply lines of the allies. Court, “aspiring” one boat sank and other members of the “pack”. Such a tactic would bring the enemy maximum damage. It is significant that Ukraine refers to the methods of the fascist fleet,” — said Chaly told reporters.

In his opinion, in modern conditions of existence of the Ukrainian Navy, these plans could not be implemented.

“What we can say, if Ukraine does not have any submarine? There was one (“Zaporozhye”), and that now in the South Bay of Sevastopol is under the flag of St. Andrew.
I don’t think even the most ambitious Ukrainian policy on something like that (attack on the drilling rigs of the Russian Federation — approx. ed.) will be solved. Even they understand that this story will end very badly for the participants. But this does not mean that the black sea fleet must be ready for provocations. As said Cornelius Nepos, “if you want peace, prepare for war”, — said Chaly.”‘

Any party that attempt such tactics would naturally experience the same response that the British Navy mounted…

The real policy?

Kill as many Nazi sailors as possible. (they managed 3 out of 4 men, 75%)

Never an advocate of violence, but merely an amateur historian, my historical opinion is that the Nazis would mostly all die pretty quickly if a material strategy against the BSF (Ru) were to be employed. Strategy is silly.

From Bhutan,A Very Un-Neighborly Interest Rate?
“What is THE BREAKING NEWS is this: India is getting the loan from Japan at 0.10% p.a.!!! Yes, what you are seeing is correct – the interest rate is ZERO POINT ONE ZERO PERCENT!

Compare that to what Bhutan is paying to India for our doomed hydro-power projects:

Yes, it is 0.01% only. The money is to be used for a very specific purpose, i.e., creating/laying the Bullet Train Project. And what is untold that the technology has to be again very specific … something from a specific Japanese Company who will also be doing almost everything, including importing equipments, overseeing the execution and almost everything.

Hence, this specific loan cannot be compared to a general loan which can be utilized for any job and where no restriction is imposed.

Would you care to compare the Chinese Loan & interest given to Pakistan for CPEC, please ?

Here is your answer:
According to this with official document provided as evidence:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China%E2%80%93Pakistan_Economic_Corridor
“Concessionary loans[edit]
Approximately $11 billion worth of infrastructure projects being developed by the Pakistani government will be financed at an interest rate of 1.6%,[213] after Pakistan successfully lobbied the Chinese government to reduce interest rates from an initial 3%.[214] Loans will be dispersed by the Exim Bank of China, China Development Bank, and the ICBC.[215] For comparison, loans for previous Pakistani infrastructure projects financed by the World Bank carried an interest rate between 5% and 8.5%,[216] while interest rates on market loans approach 12%.[217]
The loan money would be used to finance projects which are planned and executed by the Pakistani government. Portions of the approximately $6.6 billion[93] Karachi–Lahore Motorway are already under construction.[218] The $2.9 billion phase which will connect the city of Multan to the city of Sukkur over a distance of 392 kilometres has also been approved,[219] with 90% of costs to be financed by the Chinese government at concessionary interest rates, while the remaining 10% is to be financed by the Public Sector Development Programme of the Pakistani government.[220] In May 2016, the $2.9 billion loan were given final approvals required prior to disbursement of the funds were given by the Government of the People’s Republic of China on May 4, 2016, and will be concessionary loans with an interest rate of 2.0%.[82] The National Highway Authority of Pakistan reported that contractors arrived on site soon after the loan received final approval.[82]
The China Development Bank will finance the $920 million towards the cost of reconstruction of the 487 kilometer portion of the Karakoram Highway between Burhan and Raikot.[221][222] An addition $1.26 billion will be lent by the China Exim Bank for the construction of the Havelian to Thakot portion of this 487 kilometer stretch of roadway,[80][81] to be dispersed as low-interest rate concessionary loans.[82]
$7 billion of the planned $8.2 billion overhaul of the Main Line 1 railway is to be financed by concessionary loans, which extended by China’s state owned banks.[223]
The long-planned 27.1 km long $1.6 billion Orange Line of the Lahore Metro is regarded as a commercial project,[210] and does not qualify for the Exim Bank’s 1.6% interest rate. It will instead by financed at a 2.4% interest rate[152] after China agreed to reduce interest rates from an originally planned rate of 3.4%.[224]
The $44 million Pakistan-China Fiber Optic Project, a 820 km long fibre optic wire connecting Pakistan and China, will be constructed using concessionary loans at an interest rate of 2%, rather than the 1.6% rate applied to other projects.[225]
Interest-free loans[edit]
The government of China in August 2015 announced that concessionary loans for several projects in Gwadar totalling $757 million would be converted 0% interest loans.[213] The projects which are now to financed by the 0% interest loans include: the construction of the $140 million East Bay Expressway project, installation of breakwaters in Gwadar which will cost $130 million, a $360 million coal power plant in Gwadar, a $27 million project to dredge berths in Gwadar harbour, and a $100 million 300-bed hospital in Gwadar.[213] Pakistan will only repay the principle on these loans.
In September 2015, the government of China also announced that the $230 million Gwadar International Airport project would no longer be financed by loans, but would instead be constructed by grants which the government of Pakistan will not be required to repay.[214]
Private consortia[edit]
$15.5 billion worth of energy projects are to be constructed by joint Chinese-Pakistani firms, rather than by the governments of either China or Pakistan. The Exim Bank of China will finance those investments at 5–6% interest rates, while the government of Pakistan will be contractually obliged to purchase electricity from those firms at pre-negotiated rates.[160]
As an example, the 1,223MW Balloki Power Plant does not fall under the concessionary loan rate of 1.6%, as the project is not being developed by the Pakistani government. Instead, it is considered to be a private sector investment as its construction will be undertaken by a consortium of Harbin Electric and Habib Rafiq Limited after they successfully bid against international competitors.[226] Chinese state-owned banks will provide loans to the consortium that are subsidised by the Chinese government. In the case of the Balloki Power Plant, state-owned banks will finance the project at an interest rate of 5%,[227] while the Pakistani government will purchase electricity at the lowest bid rate of 7.973 cents per unit.[226]”

Stephen, my nephew, is away with his lady friend this weekend. I have the whole half of this White House West to myself. I feel like I’m back in the monastery as a monk. Courtesy of Kent, Russian sacred music is playing, with monastic bells, as I type. The picture of a thoughtful young lass, wine at hand, bodes well for this three day cafe.

Bro is last up at this time, and touches me with the poignant story of his son. Thanks, for an apt metaphor for our times. More about that later. Pepe is back [there go the chimes again], pushing for China. Nominalism is at the stake. Right now I’m in the mood for sacred love; will get to the rough and ready down the line of time.

Here in this White House, it’s Catholicism all the way. A crucifix in every room, and a “Last Supper” in both kitchens overlooking the tables. My relatives are very tolerant and loving to me, despite the chasm of our differences in values. I had a spirited talk with my brother-in-law and sister an hour ago on their side of the house.

With energy, I shared about my values fairly openly, but balked at monogamy for quite obvious reasons. They were named Catholic family of the year in Wisconsin a few years ago. They’re meat eaters but not pet keepers. We respect each others’ views. I am still catholic at heart, and believe in God and Christ. I explained how I am updating theology in accordance with the “God is LOve” theology of John, here at this blog. No apparent problem for them. We discussed the new Pope, and related topics. No problem when love and blood are the moderators.

When I was in the monastery, I well remember Father Hermes, who was ordained both a Catholic and Orthodox priest; either Greek or Russian–can’t remember which. He had a Orthodox chapel in the monastery, where I attended services at times. I’ll never forget the awesome chants, especially the one, “Holy Strong One…” Whatever the language, it was awesome too.

Father Hermes taught us Catholic literature: Hopkins, Thompson, Baudelaire, etc. I remember him walking out in windy rain, robe and cape whirling about; and him seemingly oblivious of everything besides his inner vision. At the end of a class once, he picked up books and lectern and all, to leave. Broke us up with suppressed laughter.

Here on the TV, I’m treated to red-robed cardinals and bishops in Rome and other centers of the “true faith.” Patriarchal to the core, accompanied by powerful sacred music. In the monastery, we used to joke about the supposed tunnel from the monastery to the nunnery. At a public event I flirted with a girl a row behind us, to the scandal and delight of my confreres. The essence of Dennis the Menace.

Today I thought of how patrix celibacy can work for us. Priests, nuns and monks are free to experiment easier than married folks, responsible for their families and children. What if that monastery-nunnery meme is true in the best of all worlds? Celibates could open the door to sacred communal sex, as it was in the beginning, is now and forever will be.

The number 3 and 333 is about the mystery of trinity. I was up at 333 to pee-pee. In Christianity, the 3 in 1 Trinity is the core of cores of its doctrines. This needs to be updated from Father, Son and Holy Ghost to the three womem graces of our ancient lover ancestors. There indeed is a Father, Son and Holy Ghost, but the orientation of love has been put in a straitjacket and turned into its opposite.

Men need to get their head on straight. They have no other purpose but to love womem and their children. It will begin with a renewed theology and christology, based on John’s “God is Love” doctrine; and illustrated by Bro’s 6 foot 5 strong, but gentle play with his son. The world has been turned upside down, and God and his men, especially the celibate monks, need a truthful connection to womem and nuns.

We are saved, made safe, by the sacred sex and love rites, which have been wiped out by patrix lying propaganda and outright murder. This has to change. I allude to this in my novel, “Love and War.” It’s the most shocking dogma of all which runs over everyone’s karma. We are shell shocked by the very idea, because it is the heart of truth, and we have had one massive heart attack culturally, aided and abetted by the malignant cancer of patriarchy as such, mitigated by the idea of a benign patriarchy, which has to be the agent of stopping war, and restoring true love.

My feet are itching to be walking up to the 50 foot gate, an hour away. Got to get off my seat to meet my destiny. I’ll take you with me, and we can discuss silently the topics Bro has brought up, relative to Pepe and China. I’ll play bull in a china shop and Bro can be the one handed chopstick. You all be the referee.

I’ll see you later, alligator; and after awhile, terminator. Trump the Terminator; now that’s a new slogan to stir the pot. The LOve [hand to heart, I swear that unconscious providential mistake is over-riding my brain waves]. I figured out one Jungian archetypal connection: look closely at the word, and see the face of the Lover–the big L is the nose, the large O the eye, the small v the ear and the small e her swirling hair; in silhouette. Another interpretation is, in all small case: l for penis, o for vagina, v for vulva, e for swirling hair and/or dancing body of lovers.

My seat is sore. The mind can comprehend only what the seat can endure; and I’m at the end of my endurance. My stomach has already sent the buckwheat pancakes on down to the small intestines, which will pass the undigested to the colon for fermentation, where I can freely indulge in the “art of the fart” out in the open air, without social indecorum.

Love, Dennis, Tomah Chief, at high noon, heartland time, from fly-over and deplorable terrortority, for the far left and far right coasts… Posted at 12 noon, or 00:00 everywhen…MEGA Make Earth Great Again…

A new monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He notices, however, that they are copying copies, and not the original books.

So, the new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this. He points out that if there was an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies. The head monk says, “We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son.”

So, he goes down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original. Hours later, nobody has seen him. So, one of the monks goes downstairs to look for him. He hears sobbing coming from the back of the cellar and finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying. He asks what’s wrong.

“The word is celebrate not celibate,” says the old monk with tears in his eyes.

Nationalist Delirium Tremens//// Europe was born in Catalonia and Europe is Catalan. Catalonia will generate a new civilization and will dominate Europe the next 1.700 years according to this Catalan nationalist academic. Not only that (I quote him) “In the next 1.700 years all the Western World will think and will live like the Catalans”. I endured in Lithuania this kind of individuals. There is something worst than a nationalist bigot. A nationalist bigot with diploma. PS: Mostly the Catalan academia are full of this retarded individuals that got their position thanks to nepotism promoted by the nationalist ruling party (CIU, today PDeCAT, that has been ruling, looting and brainwashing the Catalan people for 4 decades already) #gonzoblogger #Cataloniacrisis

Yes, well, I remember him…ie not necessary to look him up. Later he enlisted in US Navy…

For other…the kid built an atomic reactor in his mother’s backyard shed.

It worked. He paid for the project with his pay from an after school job…pizza delivery?

But his project had nothing to do with explosive machine. He simply created a dangerous radioactive machine that began to evolve – as nuclear reactions do. Something like panic then took over and he began to take steps to deactivate and disassemble machine. Cops twigged to it and he got busted.

Again, if rockets accurate target destroyed, nuke on the top is not necessary. However, if murdering millions is the desired outcome, then nuke explosive machine would be the obvious choice.

Seems to me that M. Albright said she thought it was ok to murder a million kids…on tv…but I might be mistaken. Who would say such a silly thing?

Any funded secret organisation with the idiotic criminal intent to create one atom bomb can probably do that. Project extremely unwise. One gadget, maybe two. Is useless gadget. The business is nuts. However building a factory to mass produce gadgets… That’s significant. It is also probably not possible except by states, maybe big corporations…

It is clear to any bright literate person who takes the time to understand the chemistry and the physics in any depth that isotope separation is the slow but sure path…and that has been done experimentally (in a warehouse in Oakland California) by the old AEC…via electrophoresis. It was not “economically sound” my source told me. It cost too much, or possibly it was so cheap that it would make prior art worthless, and make already built factories worthless….I don’t know still what “not economic” meant. A GE run project, I think. I worked with some engineers who told me about it, probably 30 years ago.

Just for starters, and U ore is not hard to locate if you’re willing to devote your life to building infernal machine, after that it pretty much just years of dangerous work while the secret must be kept.

a remote ranch in Wyoming that has ore under it. maybe 10 million buck and 10 years to “bang”. Then they’d hunt you down…. In fact, if I were a cop I’d look…and so I assume they do look.

Teller told them it would have made nice bang, maybe 10 kt. My project estimate is about 1 dozen ideal men with all the skills between them, and dedicated, and silent. Probably they’d all die of cancer, or lead when they got busted. But they could do it. Is possible.

Unlike most of people so easily are thinking those most dangerous people on earth are not even near always men with ugly and brutal gangster mug. Killing and destroying is not any kind of “art” but making people to do those horrific things is. But without those media (Foreign Affairs, Atlantic, The Guardian etc) Emma Sky would be nothing. Not she really has blood in his small hands.

Well, Andy, my neighbor across the street, went and did the deed. He is now She officially after having undergone an operation in which his male organ was excised ( ouch!) and reconfigured into a 6 inch deep yoni. We now by law in California refer to her by name , Ari, and regard her as “she”. She is in terrible pain from the surgery. I suppose it must be like the practice of cutting—at least one feels something sharp/dramatic rather than unbearable diffuse angst? As many hormones as she takes, her bone structure is still post puberty male. And her brain now formed was never awash with female hormones upon maturity. Nor has she had or will have the blessings of ovaries. There is a limit to transformation and some things to which a dialectical approach is nonsensical.

“It just breaks my heart.” said the woman behind me at the check out counter at Kohl’s. We had been talking about the situations in this country— the storms, the fires, the attacks on Trump, JFK,9/11,Las Vegas shootings and at what point a conspiracy theory turns into a full blown conspiracy.
She thanked me for talking with her and expressed relief that she wasn’t just a crazy person.

“You are not and we need to talk more to each other like this.” I said in parting. No one else spoke up and they seemed uneasy. There seems to be an uneasily understood no talk rule which is a sure sign of ongoing abuse and imminent tyranny.

I went to a store bathroom recently and there were 3: one male, one female and one male/female. I almost walked into the male/female one not because I felt at all gender conflicted that day, but rather because it was placed right beside the male bathroom. The one I was looking for was across the way and opposite the two. When I stopped, confused, an old country grandmother sitting on a bench between the two alerted me by pointing behind me. At least Walmart has kept the two gender bathrooms on the same wall but has a sign ,” Family bathroom at the rear of the store”.

As Diamond and Silk say: ” Something ain’t right.”

For those who like bitcoin: my brother in PR reports that everything is still a mess–when the electricity comes on everyone rushes to use it and so it crashes almost immediately. When is the ability to do centralized control with rationing a plus? Passenger Planes fly in empty and leave filled to the max with people.

Trump and the 101 Airborne are stuck waiting for initiatives from the local government. If they charge in and take over, then they are imperialists abusive, trampling the rights of Puerto Ricans etc. etc. but if they sit with the resources ready then they are neglectful racists non compassionate etc.etc.
Again, this has little to do with rescue and aid and everything to do with who wins Florida in 2020.

Anyway, those with resources have taken to using credit cards for money since the banks when they are open often times only issue $20 per person. Evidently the black market is doing well and those with solar chargers rule. My brother and his wife eat out at the local food stand which is doing a thriving business. They are lucky he says—the people in the countryside and small towns are suffering terribly. “We may have to abandon everything and leave,” he says.

It’s been coming for some time now. The deep state run by the globalists must initiate the final move to take it all over. News US legislators have looped in the major internet players in the media war on Putin and Russia only comes as a surprise for those who are just consumers of Facebook, Google, Twitter and Microsoft products and services. For these people, I’ve got breaking news.

Your glorious internet freedoms are about to be terminated. Be vigilant and watch Microsoft in the next days.

Please allow me to set the stage for what I am about to reveal to you…

It was probably a Crow/Raven of the genus Corvus. In my region of Uralskaya Russia we have the Grey Crow (a dirty magpie bird found mostly in garbage dumps) and the Soroka, famous for the rhyme Soroka beleboka. My eldest daughter could never understand my liking for the Soroka until she heard the songs of the similar birds of my native land – the Australian Magpie and Pied Butcherbird. I’ve never got used to the lack of birdlife in Russia, frogs and reptiles I understand due to climate – but birds?

An example of a toxic scientific paradyme ( post WWII American) : Obesity as too many calories in/not enough out versus obesity as a hormone regulatory disorder. In other words what you eat is more important than how much you eat and at a certain point of imbalance calorie restriction will not work to regulate weight.

There is a great you tube lecture from the UCSF medical school entitled `Sugar; the bitter truth.´ Well worth watching. Interesting too that the slandering of saturated fats was done by the sugar industry to cover this truth, and sell cheap unsaturated oils like canola (which used to be used for machine oil). Actually we need saturated fats to heal and seal the gut lining once dysbiosis sets in. See GAPS diet for healing chronic disease. Dr Natasha Campbell- McBride is one of my heroes for researching and making this knowledge freely available.
Understanding the human biome will revolutionise healthcare in the near future.

Suddenly, my snow-white cat
Felt the smell of nearing rat
Kitty Cat made a jump
On the desk, on the lamp
Pulling glass, pulling flower
Making papers have a shower
Then she jumped over my head
Plunging nicely on the bed
Not for long – you can bet
Things were not yet set
She ruined, she jumped
like real master,
Leaving behind a room disaster.
Like funny pawn,
the chair went down
With my yellow short
In acrobatic sport
Flying on a frame, on wall
On a painting of a nude gall.
After all this kitty play
Curious who’s in her way
Heard a voice in high soprano
Accompanied by a piano :
“Once, the old man Plinius
Living in the old Temple,
Saw some sort of flying bus,
Red and yellow as an apple
Very strange, a miracle !
– Hi, I come from Sirius
and my name is Spartacus…”
Then he laughs and laughs again
Repeating the last refrain.
Little beast has come and gone
Staging in my house, Maidan !

Well, well, well… here we goes once again. The U.S. military sent a highly qualified WMD specialist (Staff Sgt. Jeremiah W. Johnson, 39) on a “routine patrol” in Niger to teach local soldiers “to respect human rights” due to which presumably “the well-being of the American people” would be “sufficiently enhanced”?

Wait for me, and I’ll come back!
Wait with all you’ve got!
Wait, when dreary yellow rains
Tell you, you should not.
Wait when snow is falling fast,
Wait when summer’s hot,
Wait when yesterdays are past,
Others are forgot.
Wait, when from that far-off place,
Letters don’t arrive.
Wait, when those with whom you wait
Doubt if I’m alive.

Wait for me, and I’ll come back!
Wait in patience yet
When they tell you off by heart
That you should forget.
Even when my dearest ones
Say that I am lost,
Even when my friends give up,
Sit and count the cost,
Drink a glass of bitter wine
To the fallen friend –
Wait! And do not drink with them!
Wait until the end!

Wait for me and I’ll come back,
Dodging every fate!
“What a bit of luck!” they’ll say,
Those that would not wait.
They will never understand
How amidst the strife,
By your waiting for me, dear,
You had saved my life.
Only you and I will know
How you got me through.
Simply – you knew how to wait –
No one else but you.

After so many years, the old veterans have not forget, the days of the past still lives in their hearts, for them it is still today, it is still now and their comrades are still young and alive…
thanks for sharing !

This is America’s continuing ‘Horror Show’ … what’s next !
Where are the investigators and the investigation !
This is similar to the burnt cars on 911 with aluminum parts vanished, melted and/or evaporated.
911 was nuclear demolition.

Bebop, the Jim Stone link is all over the place on many, many issues. If it’s California fires with strange electrical phenomenon in the air and car parts melting in inexplicably weird ways I have no more than picked up on some of the reports, like you have. I saw nothing here in Socal in terms of effects of the one wild fire anywhere close to me.

I think 95% + of the strange new phenomenon reported was much further north.

I am interested in Pavel’s link. If Dmitri Khalezov has a very revealing report 2 years old, both he and his report are new to me. I just don’t have 5 hours this evening. But if the first hour is good…maybe I’ll get through all 5 hours within a few days.

This is no criticism of either of your posts, but here is my take:

A lot of this stuff, past and present of what the Cabal was up to and is still up to gets almost pornographic………… After a certain point I would rather focus (for balance) on positive and potent things the good side is up to.

Then, when I am getting a bit too optimistic…maybe it’s time to peer into the darkness to exercise the pupil’s ability to open WIDE, Over-confidence works against that function……

However: There has been enough low light exercise of late…..Time for some brightness!

In that regard I think the Trump visit to Asia commencing Nov 3, especially to China, could crush the warlocks, Satanists and minions of Empire more effectively than any other of the multitude of other flanks that do exist.

Therefore shutting up Bannon’s War on China rants and chiding some of our own Sinophobes in some dark Vineyard corners may yield the most “bang for the yuan” right now…..LOL.

And I am behind on my reading. So at the moment it is over to Xi’s Roadmap to the Chinese Dream….which was posted yesterday….and….it’s almost …Tomorrow!

The Titanic did not sink and before it was scrapped secretly in Scotland it had served well as a hospital ship during WW1.
Titanic’s sister ship, Olympic, was severely damaged in accidents and scheduled to be deregulated for carrying passengers.
The Olympic sank in 1912.

I like the metaphor so much that I will use it in regard to my own life. I’ll play off Cardinal John Henry Newman’s “Apologia Pro Vita Sua.” Apologia comes from the roots of apo, as in apopros, and logia, the Greek for word, order, consciousness and organization. It has nothing to do with the modern notion of apologizing. Newman interpreted it as a defense of his life.
,
I am not interested in defending my life, but in understanding it. Writing about my life may help my understanding it. I share it in a community of peers because I am part of a social network called humanity. If I indeed pursue it, the writing may become long, so I’ll break it into parts.

Love and War – Part 1

In this cafe community, I receive feedback, such as the story just quoted about celibacy and celebration. Bro thinks that I am a nominalist. If I understand him, Bro thinks he is a universalist, which might account for his trust in the China Dream, which is large and expansive. I do not trust such a dream; I trust in particular persons and in small communities. I trust in myself. I trust in words, names, signs and symbols as sacraments which effect what they signify. Although they are useful in my journey, I have less trust in abstractions and universals.

Such trust is a new development. Heretofore, I have trusted in God, Church, tradition, parents, authorities, saints, experts, teachers and external spirits. They have all helped me on my path, but did not satisfy my needs. I now need to build on what they have provided. I want to develop their ideas and practices. Let me be clear. I believe that God and the other beings I listed do exist; and that my relationship with them is developing–I have by no means discarded them.

There is a war going on inside me. I have been drawn to this site, which is a war site, dedicated to stopping the war on Russia. I recognize the need for analyses, and I read much of it, but it does not satisfy me. This cafe has arisen within this war site, which seems providentially designed for an alternative solution to stopping war.

Here we have interpersonal conversation, poetry, music, visual arts and a wide variety of links to anything that can pass moderation. All this may help the cause of stopping war, if only for doing something different, which has elements of anti-war virtues. This seems to satisfy most here, but not myself.

I have developed my own antidotes to war, which I freely share here. It is my contribution to the cause of stopping the war on Russia. I learn by sharing and receiving feedback. It confirms my belief that the ultimate reality is particular persons in community. These persons are advanced lovers, often called ancestors, who create all that is by loving. This vineyard harbors traces of their presence.

These lovers exist throughout the universe, and are particularly situated here on this earth in space and time, primarily as humans like ourselves. Our purpose here is to be lovers, and to practice what that means. The basic choice we have is to be a lover or a killer; hence the tension between love and war.

This site has an underpinning of religion. I do also, which speaks to our coming together. God is the main tenet of religion; and both contribute to love and war. I want to explore these areas in a community of competent peers. So far I have not found anything else so well suited to my purpose.

I have said enough for now. This is but an opening statement of intent. I am testing the waters prior to wading in more deeply. Ankle deep is safe. There are dangers and difficulties if I proceed; I can still turn back from my goal of reaching the ship buoyed in the deeper waters. If I make it there, avoiding the undertows and sharks, a new leg of the journey will commence.

Living in the past they are. See these frequently in the skies here (once or twice a year). No news coverage at all off course (we’re in NATO you see, they are our friends).
Norway in case you don’t know by now.

IF, the shit hits the fan, they will never get the 15 minutes to get air-borne they are (were) supposed to.
Play for the gallery.

obviously is mobilisation. empire cannot abide any alternative. Is not a matter of will, but delusions and beliefs, eg ideologies, or insanities, there is little semantic separation between the several ways the gods make men blind and mad.

the gathering inefficiencies of the several institutions of empire follow a pattern of contractions and corruptions that suggest that the last institution standing must be the institution of force. A Military Junta. Gee whiz! That’s happened.

And, drum roll please, when that institution fails, if history’s rhymes a our guide, we may expect a failure of empire. After that America and empire become – well, there there’s some doubts. eh?

We shall see how their lordships act. It seems obvious that a release of the satraps is both dangerous and also necessary to same the country.

It may be that the institution of force will end due to internal contradiction…ain’t it always so?

Mutiny. And we see that already in small ways. Some retired US Army officers I have heard loudly declare that they will refuse callup. The navy has well-known mutiny problems too… These matters may be expected to grow.

It seems, taking into view many disparate aspects, that VVP and K. Volker have exchanged their views with respect to the future of the republics, and probably most of Ukraine – that they have shared their respective positions and been unable to discover agreement. Pity!

It seems so, since VVP aide V. Surkov came to the party in Rostov on Don…

“…Indeed, it seems like this monument to Russian volunteers in Donbass in Rostov-on-Don is Russia’s response to the US’ ultimatum…”

My translation of the objective realities include the view that Ivan just said “bring it!”

Maybe they will. That probably would be a grave error, and simply add to the long list of grave errors… Empire, since it cannot lose, always doubles when it loses, if that makes semantic sense… So they will, or really must, bring it. Attack by souped-up nazis therefore probably already running at clandestine level…as we can see if we look. One would expect key people to “disappear” and an unusual number of mysterious fires, and so on…as we see. duh!

I would be happy to see what people closer to Russia and the language – Auslander, for example, and Saker, and so forth, see in this – which seems to be a signal icon of political messaging that implies near term violence. Engagement. Or possible E will fold. Do not hold your breath on that.

Interestingly enough….Putin “sacked” , well relieved is how Tass puts it.
….a deputy foreign minister today…perhaps a hardline foreign policy is beginning to merge and become consolidated if one adds up all the recent MFA and MoD statements against an ever more nonsensical debased and hysterical usa rapidly losing the plot on its way to implosion..eg Haley declaring Russia is engaged in warfare against usa by interfering in democratic processes of their political landscape of insanity…maybe someone can make an assessment of this person Menshkov who has been made Ambassador to France and his appointed successor Alexander Pankin…….any real change ?????

In a field beside our ancient lake
I scan the twilight shore,
a bucolic landscape by an old master,
Gainsborough, perhaps.

Spread from tree to tree hang fishing nets,
their web-like strands await repair.
A tethered horse snorts and strains
To feast on greener tufts of grass, just out of reach.

Anchored boats, bows pointing to the wind
Bob gently in the evening breeze beside white egrets
long-legged in the shallows,
their stealth rewarded with a tasty catch.

I turn to see a fence, a rickety structure of wire and branches
that de-mark the place, staked like a prospector’s claim.
Scavenged items from better days and finer circumstances
are scattered in this wall-less space:
a plastic chair with missing limb;
an equipales partly come unstrung;
black vinyl couch, its stuffing oozing out
provide a sitting-room;
no TV but a view across the lake of matchless splendor –
from sunrise to sundown in brilliant technicolor.

The sturdy stone wall of a spacious lake-front home
is all that separates this shabby squatters’ place from someone’s grand abode.
It serves as backdrop to the bedroom;
the rest is framed with planks and airy fronds of palm.
Tin roof, held down with rocks, keeps out the rain;
Accompaniment to the lapping waves,
on makeshift shelf, nailed to a towering eucalyptus tree,
a transistor radio, its volume turned down low,
plays pop tunes.

I am reminded of our camping days, when after a day-long paddle,
we’d squat beside a glassy lake or roaring rapid.
Then, a rocky hearth and tent with pine-soft floor
was all we needed for a good night’s rest,
when so little was enough to call that place our home.

Without knowing the consequences I had two test-versions of security, Ariva and Kaspersky. My system went broke.
The muticom-guy told me: 2 security = no security, they fight each other, recognizing the “good bug” of the other security as an enemy. They fight each other , he said, and never he had undergone one being victor.

Sometimes I think, will this magical place have to share the experience of becoming overcrowded by visitors? Heaven forbid!

Mold of Expressionism, birthplace of abstract painting (Vasili Kandinsky, Blauer Reiter ‘blue rider’) … but of what use is all expressionism, when the friends of art are walking- talking- without- end through the motives in a landscape no god could have created a more beautiful one.

I hope this year of Jupiter in Scorpio = conciliation by waiver, abandonment and abdication will bring,
what waiver always brings: some more clearness in heart and mind and more peace in the humanity
and some declining of the pressure in the steam pot of fate.

But mostly, I’m alone on my silent ways spinning my thought-circles around my space together with my unknown friends in Russia China, Syria, Iran, … and in the Vineyard + Cafe and right now I think, Denis’ secured place is his indispensability for being the only one, like I see, who has an us-balancing ‘anti-China’ bias, rarely to find within those, thankful to God for V.V.Putin and his team.

A good “snapshot” of how much power the US has at the UN was on clear display today. There was a UNSC vote on the US motion to renew the chemical weapons probe in Syria.I think we all know what that is about.The US plot is to constantly attack Assad for doing what “he isn’t” doing (using those weapons).And keep stirring the pot there.Russia and Bolivia (yes little anti-imperialist Bolivia) had the “stones” to vote against it.China and Kazakhstan ,both said to be “allies” of Russia,only had the “fortitude” to abstain.Not even enough to vote against it.While the other 11 countries (way over half of the UNSC) voted as puppets of the US,for it. Can we now,stop the crowing about how we are somehow winning some information war.And for once just accept reality.As long as our own allies are too cowardly to support us with more than vague words.We aren’t winning anything.We also aren’t losing.At best we are “holding our own” against the empire.But that is a far cry from winning,so far. Only when votes like that are turned around.And there are more votes against the US ,than for her.When our own allies,get “courage” enough to vote with us.Can anyone realistically say we are winning anything.

“Only when votes like that are turned around.And there are more votes against the US ,than for her.When our own allies,get “courage” enough to vote with us.Can anyone realistically say we are winning anything.”

There are People who think that better designs of buildings and homes are needed in areas where there are hurricanes.

There are designs that are more aerodynamic than others, and I think that houses that have the shape of somewhere between a cube and half of a sphere are good aerodynamically for where there are hurricanes.

There are some aircraft that can travel at thousands of miles her hour, and the wings of those aircraft are designed to withstand those winds on them.

This is because of their shape, and so wind tunnel tests would provide good shapes for houses that look similar to the top of an astronomical observatory for areas prone to hurricane.

I think that such houses should have a steel frame of sufficiently strong angle iron that can be joined together with angle iron beneath the joins, and which is bolted on the side that does not interfere with where the cladding of the house would be bolted onto the mainframe of the house.

The joined angle iron can be welded for extra strength for the mainframe of the house.

Those houses would not have verandas where high speed winds get under the verandas and could damage a house, but the cladding of the house would begin at the bottom of the house and would go to the top of the house.

The cladding for the house could be corrugated galvanized iron, and it would be bolted onto the angle iron mainframe of the house and where the end of the bolt can be bent slightly to ensure that it would not become loose over time and cause rattling of the corrugated galvanized iron cladding of the house during a hurricane.

The house could have places where iron cables can attached to the mainframe of the house, and which is placed on metal that is concreted in the ground, and where the iron cables are tightened to give extra strength to the house during the hurricane, and after the hurricane, the iron cables are rolled up and stored away until the next hurricane.

There could be mounds of earth built around cities or towns where hurricanes tend to approach, and this would direct much of the wind over those places to better cope with hurricanes, because we Know the financial costs of hurricanes to certain Charities and to certain Governments, and this is why minimizing the effects of hurricanes should be considered.

There are Architects and there are Engineers who better understand these things, and these are a few opinions of what might be considered and improved upon in order to better cope with these events that are caused because hurricanes affect some Countries.
